Chef Moz License

Chef Moz is a compilation of many different editors' contributions.  Netscape Communications Corporation (`Netscape') owns the copyright to the compilation of the different contributions, and makes Chef Moz available to you to use under the following license agreement terms and conditions (`Chef Moz License').  For purposes of this Chef Moz License, `Chef Moz' means only the Chef Moz Project currently hosted at http://chefmoz.org (or at another site as may be designated by Netscape in the future), and does not include any other versions of directories, even if referred to as a `Chef Moz,' that may be hosted by Netscape on other web pages (e.g., Netscape Netcenter).

1. Basic License.  Netscape grants you a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify and create derivative works from, and distribute and publish Chef Moz and your derivative works thereof, subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Chef Moz License.  You may authorize others to exercise the foregoing rights; provided, however, that you must have an agreement with your sublicensees that passes on the requirements and obligations of Sections 2 and 4 below and which must include a limitation of liability provision no less protective of Netscape than Section 6 below.

Due to the nature of the content of Chef Moz, many third parties' trade names and trademarks will be identified within the content of Chef Moz (e.g., as part of URLs  and names of restaurants).  Except for the limited license to use the Netscape attribution in Section 2 below, nothing herein shall be deemed to grant you any license to use any Netscape or third party trademark or tradename.

2. Attribution Requirement.  As a material condition of this Chef Moz License, you must provide the below applicable attribution statements on (1) all copies of Chef Moz, in whole or in part, and derivative works thereof which are either distributed (internally or otherwise) or published (made available on the Internet and/or internally over any internal network/intranet or otherwise), whether distributed or published electronically, on hard copy media or by any other means, and (2) on any program/web page from which you directly link to/access any information contained within Chef Moz, in whole or in part, or any derivative work thereof:

(a) If Chef Moz in whole or in part, or any derivative work thereof, is made available via the Internet or internal network/intranet and/or information contained therein is directly accessed or linked via the Internet or internal network/intranet then you must provide the Netscape attribution statement as described in the page(s) at the URL http://chefmoz.org/become_an_editor.

(c) If you are using or distributing Chef Moz in modified form (i.e., with additions or deletions), you must include a statement indicating you have made modifications to it.  Such statement should be placed with the attribution notices required by Sections 2(a) and 2(b) above.

Netscape grants you the non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the above identified Netscape attribution statements solely for the purpose of the above attribution requirements, and such use must be in accordance with the usage guidelines that may be published by Netscape from time to time as part of the above URLs.

THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO YOUR CHEF MOZ USE IS BORNE BY YOU. YOU AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD NETSCAPE, ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES HARMLESS FROM ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO YOUR CHEF MOZ USE.
